Описание:

In the summer of 1973, the high school football star Forest Hammond traded his gear for cuffs, entering the Baton Rouge Parish Prison after being caught up in a situation gone wrong. The course of this young man's promising life changed with one mistake: the football hero with the athletic scholarship overestimated himself. In an attempt to dissolve a violent situation, he failed and became entangled in a violent crime leading to a prison sentence for murder. Saint, as he was known, went on to serve time in Angola, one of the most violent penitentiaries in the country. His mistake would cost him nine years.

His shot at a shorter sentence came after learning about a program allowing him to work as a servant in the governor's mansion in exchange for a possible chance at freedom. After serving as a butler for Gov. Edwin W. Edwards for years, he obtained the coveted gold letter of pardon. His experiences in Angola and the mansion greatly affected him and changed the direction of his life. His story is both cautionary and inspirational, while exposing an outdated custom that is even now in the headlines as controversial.

Описание:

"Edwards combines the well-known (Conan Doyle, Dorothy Sayers) with the obscure (former actor Ernest Dudley) in this impressive anthology of 14 short stories featuring scientific and technical know-how...fans of TV's CSI will enjoy seeing the evolution of criminal forensics." -- Publishers Weekly, STARRED review

Forensic dentistry; precise examination of ballistics; an expertise in apiology to identify the exact bee which killed the victim?

The detective's role may be simple; solve the case and catch the culprit, but when the crime is fiendishly well-executed the application of the scientific method may be the only answer.

The detectives in this collection are masters of scientific deduction employing principles of chemistry, the latest technological innovations and an irresistable logical brilliance in their pursuit of justice. Containing stories by early masters in the field such as Arthur Conan Doyle and L. T. Meade alongside fine-tuned mysteries from the likes of Edmund Crispin and Dorothy L. Sayers, The Measure of Malice collects tales of rational thinking to prove the power of the brain over villainous deeds.

Описание:

"There is a special fascination about a mystery that is supposedly solved and then resurfaces years later. Martin Edwards exploits this fascination most intriguingly - and with a sensational outcome."
- Peter Lovesey, CWA Diamond and Gold Dagger winner

Another of the highly acclaimed Harry Devlin series, Yesterday's Papers is an atmospheric, well-paced thriller with a satisfying twist.

The murder of pretty teenager Carole Jeffries in 1964 created a storm of interest. Who could possibly want to snuff out a life packed with such potential? A girl who had everything, including moneyed parents and a pop star boyfriend. Within days a neighbour had confessed to the crime, was found guilty and hanged for the crime. Case closed. Thirty years later, lawyer Harry Devlin is approached by an amateur criminologist who is convinced that Carole's killer is still at large. When the man is found dead in suspicious circumstances, Harry starts to investigate the case in earnest...

ABOUT THE SERIES: The Arcturus Crime Classics series has lovingly brought back to life some forgotten classics of the crime genre from the last 50 years.
